Thread: Hartebeespoort dam on ESA

Youre right there Vlam, Rusties is an awesome place but can do with a little work, especially the
ablutions, would love to camp there again soon though.

does rusties have any accomadation and is it safe

Camping only but it is safe to do so, they have ablution facilities but very basic.

I wont float tube or bank fish, because of the big crocs.

@ Vlam. Actually the last time I was there they had graded the dirt road from the Office to the Launch. I hear they are raising the wall at the overflow., yes the ablutions do need attention

thats good news indeed !

I know about the raising of the overflow wall, thats why they moved the ablution facilities further up, wonder how that is going to affect the low water bridges on your way to the slipway, and if they are going to make a new(better) slipway

When will the raising of the wall start and finish. Do we have any idea?

They have already started, dont know when they will finish. they are not raising the wall just the overflow.
